Part Based Human Detection In Video

In this project we deal with human detection in image using part-based methods. Applications involving human detection are being used on a daily basis in pedestrian safety, security and gaming consoles such as Kinect .
In 2005, Dalal & Triggs, published their breakthrough article on Histogram of Oriented Gradients. They were able to create a set of distinctive features for human detection using calculations of gradients in an image, and creating a histogram of the size and orientation of gradients over small detection widows, covering the entire image.
